Project MCP: May Themes + Win a Tamron Lens

April was a fun and productive month for Project MCP. The Project MCP Team really enjoyed perusing the Flickr gallery and seeing your interpretations of the challenges.

This week we are going to surpass the highlights and go straight to the main event! May is almost here and the weather is getting warmer in certain parts of the world. It’s the perfect time to get outside and explore your surroundings.

Imagine winning a brand new lens for your d-SLR camera. You will NOT want to miss your opportunity to own the Tamron 17-50mm Lens. See details below to learn how!

The Prize:

Submit photos for Project MCP. We have 5 themes for May. You can have up to five entries for this contest: one for each theme. After you upload to the Flick Group or our Facebook Wall, add a comment on this post for each photo and link directly to the photo. That’s all you need to do to enter.

Bonus Entry:

Add a Project MCP Banner to your blog or website and get an extra entry. Leave a bonus comment below saying, “I have your banner here: ______” (link the site where the banner is located).

Contest Rules:

Winner will be picked via random drawing on the morning of Saturday, June 2nd and announced on the Project MCP Post on the MCP Blog. Odds are winning are 1/# of entries. Valid only where permitted by law.

Tamron USA Inc, the sponsor of this contest, is responsible for sales and marketing in the USA only. If you win and live outside the USA, Tamron will ship to us first and we will then send it to you. Those outside the US are responsible for the shipping costs as well as any duties, taxes, or tariffs.

I’m hoping that I’ve followed the steps correctly since the changes from last year. Please let me know if I didn’t get it uploaded into your flickr group correctly as it doesn’t show there right now. Thanks!

This is the first time I have ever taken a picture with sun flare (on purpose). Thank you for the great tutorial! It took a lot of fiddling to find an exposure that worked, and I definitely need a lot more practice, but it was so fun to learn something new!

I added a photo to the MCP FB wall on May 13th. This is for Challenge #5. Jennifer Rosencrantz Madigan is the name that it was uploaded from. I’m not sure how to add a link to the photo specifically so I hope this counts.

#5- My favorite challenge! I have a tendency to too often toss a first shot that doesn’t have a perfect expression. Here, she was pleading with me to let her catch a nearby gosling. The light was perfect, so I set my camera to get a shot and asked her to smile, ignored her pleas. I got this as my first shot, and I actually adore it. This is SOOC.
